AVENGERS VS. X-MEN Event - LIVE

On Tuesday, Marvel made the existence of Avengers vs. X-Men — their 2012 event, a 12-part affair starting in April and helmed by some of their biggest creators — known to the world. Now just one day later, they're kicking it off with an event aired on Livestream.

Here's how Marvel describes it: "A unique event produced in collaboration with Livestream.com’s cutting edge streaming services and the Hangout functionality provided by Google+, we’re bringing the writers and editors of AVX directly to the fans." Marvel editor-in-chief Axel Alonso and senior vice president of publishing Tom Brevoort are definitely both participating, as is Avengers vs. X-Men co-writer Brian Michael Bendis — and presumably many more top-name pros.
